I'm always looking at this sort of question from the food side, not the woodworkers. I'd just scrub the inside with a good abrasive rub of lemon halves with salt, wash in normal sudsy water, rinse with warm and let dry. If you're really concerned, use a mild, mild bleach rinse and keep on going. I don't rub my salad bowls with anything I'm not cooking with, but then I don't treat or rub any of my wooden culinary pieces.
Edited to say it looks like maple to me.
